Janis and Jimis Blues (written by burke)

1. When you start playing music
and you get more and more fame.
And someday you are between money and
playing with joy it's not always the same.
I sing: “Janis and Jimis Blues”
as a help, what you could do.

          It was the burden they got
          and no-one was there to help.

2. From one stage to the other
just a short time at the same place.
you have quarrel with your band
and you have a pale face.
I sing: “Janis and Jimis Blues”
It’s the way of many others, too.

          Janis and Jimis Blues
          It was the burden they got
          and no-one was there to help.


3. You are sucked by your managers,
as well by reporters
and by your bad friends
and the whole work in the spotlight
makes you a lonesome, lonesome man.
I sing: “Janis and Jimis Blues”
They lived and died as I said.
